Things Fall Apart

The Ravens today absolutely self-destructed in their loss to the Lions. There is little that can be said about today's outcome. 21 penalties. Two players ejected. A general lack of composure on the part of the players. This could very well have been the worst played game in the history of this franchise.

Pending the outcome of tonight's Bengals game, the Ravens could be 3 1/2 games out of first. Unless the Ravens undergo a massive turnaround in the next two weeks against Cleveland and Chicago, it is going to be a long rest of the 2005 season.

It begs the question; Is Brian Billick on the hot seat?
